Play ball: Photos of animals having fun with balls

Need a cure for the Monday blues? Our photo feature is here to help provide a brief diversion from your workday routine with a small dose of squee, wow and awwww. Enjoy!

Looks like the animals at Best Friends are keeping their eyes on the ball — tennis balls, soccer balls, footballs, bowling balls, treibballs and basketballs. And as you can see from the images, they’re enjoying every moment.
